The Reykjavík Grapevine

Photo by tucktulipties

We were so excited going through all of the beautiful, weird and amazing pictures posted under the hashtag #GVpics this week. Instagram really has proven that you don’t need a fancy camera to make good art, just a high-megapixel smartphone camera, and a good idea.

Although there can only be one winner of the weekly #GVpics Instagram competition, we get so many submissions that it would be irresponsible not to nominate a few runner-ups. The winner this week will receive a Grapevine T-shirt and goodie bag, so congratulations Kimberly!

This Week’s Runners-Up:

TFW you’re 10 minutes late to work and it’s been snowing and your bike looks like this.

Things white people do. 

Hm, it’s purdy. Life is probably more fun in a yellow house.

We hadn’t noticed those lying around in Reykjavík, good eye Jessica Bowe! We wouldn’t trust that the sofas are clean, though.

What are those? Wow! That’s seriously a great shot!

Please, tell us how you really feel. ❄️☀️? #icelandicwinter #icelandichorses #gvpics A photo posted by Charla Basran (@cjbasran) on

The Icelandic horsies get to do so much modelling work that they’ve mastered their best look: neighing!

A waterfall, rainbow, that dress and that pose? Of course this one made it to our top ten!

And then finally: the winner!
It must’ve been freezing, but it sure made for a stunning photograph.
